Archives: FAQs
How does the carat size of an oval diamond compare to other shapes?
Oval diamonds often appear larger than other shapes of the same carat weight due to their elongated form. This makes them an excellent choice for maximizing visual impact without increasing the carat size. The oval shape also offers a larger surface area, enhancing its brilliance.
What is a hidden halo in an oval engagement ring?
A hidden halo is a circle of smaller diamonds set beneath the main oval diamond, adding extra sparkle without being immediately visible. This subtle detail enhances the overall brilliance of the ring. It’s a popular choice for those who want a touch of extra elegance.
What is an East-West setting for an oval engagement ring?
An East-West setting places the oval diamond horizontally across the band, rather than the traditional vertical orientation. This unique setting offers a modern twist and can make the ring stand out. It’s a great option for those looking for something different and eye-catching.
What makes oval engagement rings unique?
Oval engagement rings are unique due to their elongated shape, which creates an illusion of a larger stone. This shape also offers a timeless elegance and can be customized to fit various settings and styles. Additionally, the symmetry of the oval cut provides a balanced and harmonious look.
What settings are available for oval engagement rings?
Oval engagement rings can be set in various styles such as halo, pavé, solitaire, and more. Each setting offers a different aesthetic and can enhance the beauty of the oval diamond. Our collection includes a wide range of settings to suit different tastes and preferences.
Are pear-shaped diamonds durable?
Pear-shaped diamonds are durable but require careful handling due to their pointed tip, which is more susceptible to chipping. Choosing a protective setting, such as a bezel or halo, can enhance the diamond’s durability. Regular maintenance and proper care will also help preserve the ring’s beauty and longevity.
